“In the Strength of the Lord”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet
A modern military leader, using a classic Bible story, illustrated the superiority of Spirit over weapons in this language: “When Samson took the fresh jawbone of an ass and slew a thousand men therewith, he probably started such a vogue for the weapon, especially among the Philistines, that for years no prudent donkey dared to bray. Yet, despite its initial popularity, it was discarded and now appears only as a barrage instrument for acrimonious debate.”
